Snag-free hoops are earrings featuring our patent-pending design, created to reduce snagging and pulling during everyday activities.

We’re redesigning hoops to feel safer and less stressful to wear, especially around hair, clothes, kids, pets, or busy day-to-day movement without losing the look of statement earrings.

They’re engineered to only break away at a level of force that would actually hurt your ears, so normal day-to-day wear shouldn’t cause them to come off, including running, jumping, shaking, hair flicking, and high winds. Check out our stress-test videos on our social media!

We’re deep in final testing and legal/patent work right now, so we can’t give a definitive answer on pricing just yet.

But if you’d like to follow along, you can sign up for early access at ingenihoops.com for launch updates, behind-the-scenes progress, and a few little surprises for our early supporters ✨

Right now, our prototype uses a titanium post paired with a silver outer stud, and the hoop component is electroplated silver. Titanium is commonly used for sensitive ears, which is why we chose it for the post specifically.

As we move further into manufacturing, we’ll continue exploring and testing the best possible materials for comfort, durability, and sensitive ears, so some material details may still evolve ✨

The post is 18g, which is designed to fit most standard ear piercings 🤍

As we grow, gold is definitely something we want to release since so many people have asked for it. The only thing is gold is softer than silver, so it needs a lot more testing and designing to make sure the safety mechanism still works properly, but it’s absolutely on our radar!
